<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>When building a baseline model using 90.1-2004 or 2007, what
envelope construction properties should we use for floors exposed to the exterior?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’m currently planning on the “if all else fails
match the proposed” route, but does there exist any guidance from ASHRAE
or other sources regarding what the baseline case would be for such envelope
elements?<o:p></o:p></p>
